I hope that you will give me some advice for my presentation. I will analyze the lesson from the 5 aspects：analysis of teaching material, analysis of the teaching methods and aids, analysis of students and learning strategies, teaching procedures and blackboard design.

I. Analysis of Teaching Materials1. Status and function This lesson is taken from the New Senior English for China Students Book1, published by the People’s Education Press. The topic of this unit is the Earthquake, and we’ve talked about the basic knowledge of it. This lesson is areading passage. It plays a very important role in English teaching of this unit because we should lay particular emphasis on the students’ reading ability in senior English teaching.

II. Analysis of the teaching methods and aids:That’s all for my teaching aims. Now let’s focus on the second part, Analysis of the teaching methods and aids. When I deal with this lesson. I’ll do my best to carry out some teaching theories of the new curriculum: taking the students as the host and the teacher subordinate. Carry out task-based learning and cooperative learning. Let the students receive some moral education while they are learning the English language. Teaching aids: A tape recorder, the blackboard and PPT Since it is a reading passage, it is very important to develop the students’ reading ability. I’ll use some reading methods such as preparation for reading, (lead-in) scanning, skimming and intensive reading (in-depth reading or study reading). In class, I’ll try to use encouraging and

polite remarks such as “Do you want a go?” “volunteers” “Well done!” “You did a good job!” “Thanks!” and so on. I’ll get the students to have a competition to develop their quick response. I’ll make full use of modern equipment such as the multi-media and tape recorder to make the class more lively and interesting.

III. Analysis of the students:The students are in Grade 1. They are still at an age that would like to have competition with others. They have known something about the earthquakes. Some long sentences are difficult for them to understand. So I will help the students in different levels to learn English. Various teaching methods together with the positive anticipating learning methods is the key point, which can arouse students’ interests and cultivate students’ ability effectively. With the clear learning aims, I will make the students learn this lesson with their great interest and powerful motives.

Consolidation: 1. listen to the tape and read the passage aloud (Play the tape of the passage for the students to listen and then ask them to read it aloud. Tell them to pay attention to the pronunciation, stress and intonation while listening. At the same time they can enjoy the beauty of the English language. And it can prepare the students for the retelling in
